WI Course Approval
Writing intensive courses carry the WI designation, which is visible to students on the schedule of courses and on their transcripts.
Instructors who wish to teach courses with the WI designation must be certified. Instructors who have not completed a portfolio must submit a syllabus for each course before the WI designation can be added.
